Visualizing Occupation: Divide and Conquer

Despite sharing a national identity, the Palestinian people are parceled into differential categories along geographical, socioeconomic, humanitarian, political and civilian lines determined by Israel: Palestinians holding Israeli citizenship, residents of East Jerusalem, those living in the West Bank, those in the Gaza Strip, and the refugees. In this seventh illustration in a series of infographics on Palestinian civilian life under occupation, see the divisions that dictate Palestinian existence.

You are learned. This is pretty good. Just a couple of minor points. 1) it is too long. 2) the way the lines are drawn to separate the various Palestinians is very confusing to the eye and it isn’t clear at first glance which categories correspond with which numbers on the right. 3) the three different colors used for the refugees do not correspond to any text that would explain the significance of the colors.

Is this a joke?!

There are people who are citizens of the Israel, their rights are equal. Then there are those who do not have citizenship – some live under the PO, some live under in the glorious Hamastan, some live in western states.

The refugees term is a joke, how can someone with a citizenship be called a refugee because his grandfather decided to flee 60 years ago?

Somehow – Israel owns them all something and the fact that they are not given the same treatment is considered a policy of divide and conquer?

I know how – this is Israel we’re talking about. You can write every kind of slander, lies and stupidities and no one will give a damn. The author here even add graphics around the lies to make them more clear to others.

I remember how things were 15 years ago, if you have forgotten. When the borders were open, Jews and Arabs worked, traded and lived together. I also remember what made it stop, something with Israelis being blown to pieces in buses, restaurants, pizza places, discotheques and thousands of mortars and missiles being sent towards Israel. People remember, even if you have forgotten.

This is disgusting.

No joking here , its pathetic how the indigenous population has been divided into different categories in terms of their right to their homeland .
The real joke is a bunch of thieves ,who had been living in Europe and other countries for centuries,claiming rights to a land they had never been to only because they belief G-d promised the that land 3000 years ago. A Canadian Jewish immigrant has more rights than the indigenous population ,that’s really disgusting.

@Palestinian, that is what happens when the tenants don’t realize it is time to share the land with the returning landlords.

Because this graphic is quite long and narrow, I cut it into two sections and placed them side by side to make it more squarish.
I did this because when I tried posting the long original on Facebook,some of the smaller text became so small as to be unreadable.
My version is posted on the Facebook group “Hannah Arendt: Integrity Personified”. – facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=4136630490718&set=o.152832719154&type=1&theater

The poster is both successfully informative and graphically pleasing, as your posters are. Good work!

I would clarify that Jerusalemite residence do not have the right to vote and are not represented in any political parliament.
Jerusalem officially does not respect equal rights for all.

The argument to this is that Palestinians in Jerusalem do have the right to vote for municipal elections but choose to boycott this “right”. However, considering the Municipal policies of Jewdeazation of all of Jerusalem, the settlement lead aggression, and the Kafkaesque Bureaucracy geared to push people out of the city and ethnically cleans it of its Palestinian inhabitants and character, in addition to the Municipality not playing ANY roll in final status issues such that the vote wouldn’t really influence their life, I would say the boycott was legit. Palestinians in Jerusalem do not have the right to vote.- this is important!

Please stop with the thieves lie. The land of Israel (which you prefer to call by another name) was not very populated until the Jewish immigration began. Up until the the late 1940, Jews were in no position to steal or rob anything – we simple didn’t have the might to do it (you could argue what would have happened if we had, but that’s useless).

What robbed you of “your” land is the stupidity of your leaders. Those who preferred old hatreds and war mongering to a peaceful solution. We could have all lived together, had your leaders preferred peace – at least once (like Israel did more than once).

The Jewish claim to the land is old and just, but it wasn’t with that claim that we came here. We came because other places had no future for us.

I’m tired of hearing the same old lies – land theft (when Israel has withdrawn from Judea and Sinai for peace, and was seriously considering withdrawal from Golan), refugees (people who have citizenship and live their whole lives in a country call themselves that only because their grandpa has left his home during war time) and others.

1) “was not very populated”: compare Palestine to Egypt (and not to Paris or the European cities from were the new arrived came from) of that times and u will see that the 2 were exactly in the very same proportion of population and that that very same proportion remained very close to present days
2) “The land of Israel (which you prefer to call by another name)”: the 99% of the world used to call it with the “other name”
3) “stupidity of your leaders”: too easy.
4) when exactly Israel “has withdrawn from ‘Judea'”?
5) “We came because other places had no future for us”: this is something that I accept and respect. But please don’t write all the other staff that are quite superficial

1. I just wanted to say that there was enough place for everyone
2. People use what they are taught, most of them wouldn’t be able to even find it on the map. That’s a more correct name and that’s the name I prefer to use.
3. The PA was created to for this exact purpose, so that Israel will not have to be there. Besides that, there’s no reason to be behind the separation fence, is there?

@PALESTINIAN
Hasbara is not a bad word, even though you try to use it as such. Where is the mythology?

The land of Israel was always our homeland. Zionism wanted an autonomy or something for the Jewish people. Only in later years did a country become a possibility.

Now – how are we thieves? We came, bought land and cultivated it. Everything’s legal. The land is not yours in the same sense that it is not ours. Only countries can “own” land. A proposition was made to give us a small portion of the land. Because – believe it or not – Jews too have a right to a country, just one. Your leaders refused. Our neighbors attacked and lost. (Or would you have me believe that the young Israel attacked *ALL* of its neighbors in the same time?)
Same thing again in 67. Neighbors attack and lose land.

Where is the theft? Where is the mythology?

The Palestinian refugees don’t make sense. They are a unique case in history. They are kept refugees as a weapon against Israel.

3. in many respects the PA was created in order to legitimace the occupation. before that i answer to your strange question go to explain to the peasants of nil’in and bil’in how they should cope with the “separation fence” (funny euphemism) that cut in the middle their villages and that you like so much

Vadim2,
as for what your wrote to “palestinian”.
1) We came, bought land and cultivated it: faulse. the total amount of land that was bought by the zionist organizations – as for 1947 – was 6% of the total.
2. a small portion of the land: this not what you can read in many documents written by barndeis, weizman, sokolow…ect..
3. no one asked to the palestinains to accept or refuse anything. although they had all the right ro reject such an imposition
.
4. . “Only countries can “own” land”.
You ask where is the mythology?
Here it is. Just a westerncentric mind that grew up in europe or in the US could think like that. for the indigenous majority the concept of “state” or “capital” was simply IRRELEVANT. people used to identify themselves according to other criteria. study better the topic and don’t let people force simple propaganda on you

How much time does it take for people to become indigenous? Does the fact that Jerusalem always had a strong Jewish majority make Jews the indigenous population there?

The UN committee offered to divide the land between two states – which was the only logical solution. The Palestinian leadership refused. Again, the land was not “theirs”. You could have claimed that had we come to densely populated area and demanded people leave so we could settle. This was not the case, Jews settled in empty areas, so your claim that they had all the right to reject is wrong.

What do you mean no one asked the Palestinians anything?

I didn’t say we bought everything, but up until the creation of the state – all we did is buy, nobody stole anything.

Israel is indeed a small portion of The Land of Israel. The UNSCOP recommendations offered even a smaller piece of land and Jewish leadership has agreed to that.

Please note that I didn’t say a single word regarding your knowledge nor did I imply anything regarding the knowledge of PALESTINIAN. Please don’t assume that people that you disagree with know less or are more influenced by propaganda.

Vadim,
It is easier probably for you if I tell you that a person that was born and grew up in NY and decided to emigrate in Palestine cannot be considered “indigenous” as another one that was born and that grew up in Palestine from parents that were born in the same area.
.
“Does the fact that Jerusalem always had a strong Jewish majority make Jews the indigenous population there?”.
Not “always”, but from the second half of the XIX century. And the answer is yes: the jews that were on the spot, in Jerusalem and in few other cities, were 100% part of the region
.
.
it is a barrier and not a “fence”: although the effect are pretty much the same on the local population. to learn more:http://electronicintifada.net/content/it-fence-it-wall-no-its-separation-barrier/4715
.
………”The UN committee offered to divide the land between two states – which was the only logical solution. The Palestinian leadership refused”:
First, it was “logical” only for the new immigrants and not for the local majority that until three decades before represented the 9/10 of the total population. the fact that jews had the right to have a state on the spot cannot erase the fact that was a total unjustice imposition in respect to the palestinians
Second, once again no one asked to the palestinians to accept or reject anything. when did they asked them? no one asked them anything also in 1917 or 1922. of course they have all the right to oppose such a decision
.
” Jews settled in empty areas”: this a “zionist myth”. hope u are aware of it
.
“up until the creation of the state – all we did is buy, nobody stole anything”:
the point is that “you” bought the 6% of the land and that you got a territory 10 times bigger. and all of this happened on a land in which the local majority had a total different approach toward the concept of “ownership”
.
“Israel is indeed a small portion of The Land of Israel”:
which one? the one written in the book of Joshua? or the one in the book of the Numbers? the idea to base borders on holy books (only just for one side) is fanny and tragic at the same time
.
I do apologize about the “propaganda” aspect but unfortunately is the impression that I got reading that sentences

Yes – but how many years should pass before the NY immigrant will be considered indigenous? What’s the difference between an Arab family that came to “Palestine” in 1910 and people of the second Aliya who came at the same time? Do you know how many Arabs moved here around that time, or came after Jews? Will you change your mind if you’ll see that most of them didn’t arrive much before us.

You can’t seriously accuse me of being affected by propaganda the point me to The Electronic Intifada to learn more…

The division solution is the only logical one unless:
1. You want perpetual wars
2. Think Jews deserve a country of their own
3. Think that scattered villages give an non defined group of people ownership of non defined land – even though there’s plenty of room for everyone
4. Your leadership hate Jews to the point where you side with Nazis and help recruit Muslims to the Waffen SS.

How is Jews settled in empty areas” a “zionist myth”? I’m not talking after the creation of Israel where people were housed in empty vilages. Before that. You mean to tell me that people of the 2nd Aliya (with all their military training and might) came specifically to Arab places and settled among them? Or did this folly begin with the 3rd? 4th? Or did they steal the land like our friend here tells us?

Around 1948 jewish population was about same as Arab, so no local majority there. Two hostile populations of the same size. What’s the logical solution? Throw out the Jews to the claws of Nazis?

I do not base borders on the holy books. I just replied to your claim that this is not a small part. Do you even know how tiny Israel is? This whole talk of the mighty Israel who steals and grabs land for 60 years is pathetic when you realize how tiny we are and how huge are the countries that surround us (except Lebanon of course)

VADIM,
“What’s the difference between an Arab family that came to “Palestine” in 1910 and people of the second Aliya who came at the same time? Do you know how many Arabs moved here around that time, or came after Jews? Will you change your mind if you’ll see that most of them didn’t arrive much before us.”
here its is my answer:
.
“A Palestinian who moved to south Lebanon or a Lebanese who moved to Palestine – or a Syrian or a Jordanian, for that matter – is surely not a foreigner because he is part of the culture of the society of Bilad-al-Sham, or Greater Syria, where there were no borders between countries. The whole region is Arabo-Islamic. Other minorities, even though they were neither Muslim nor Arab, were nonetheless part of that Arabo-Islamic culture. Jews, for instance, spoke Arabic. The same was true for Jews living in other Arab Islamic countries. Therefore, there is a big difference between them and foreigners who came from Europe, wether Christians or Jews. […] Its was common and natural for a Palestinian to go study in Al Azhar for instance, and remain there; or for a Hebronite merchant to go to Cairo and live there; or go to Damascus or other places, whether to study or to live […] This was a natural phenomenon.”
…
…
you write “Your leadership hate Jews to the point where you side with Nazis and help recruit Muslims to the Waffen SS.” First is “not my leadership”. Second, if you would know a bit of history you would know that the charge of “gran muftì” was created by the British, that the “Supreme muslim council” was invented by the british, that hajj amin al husseini was literally “created” and elected by the british (giving him the chance to be president of the SMC and the charche of “gran muftì”) against the will of a big part of the local population that for that decision paid enough.
….
“You mean to tell me that people of the 2nd Aliya (with all their military training and might) came specifically to Arab places and settled among them?”
The first aliyah was generally speaking fine. is when the “avodah ivrit” logic took the upper hand that started the process in which the indigenous population was in most cases denied access to their sources. and I am not speaking just the resources of that specific year, but also the sources for the new generations to come, because as all the populations in the region and outside it the pals were growing naturally day after day
…
“Around 1948 jewish population was about same as Arab, so no local majority there. Two hostile populations of the same size.”
palestinians were still the 2/3 of the population in 47/48. plus just give a look to how many fully palestinain city were supposed to pass to the new jewish state. plus for a palestinian cannot be irrelevant that until just few years before they were 9/10 of the total population.
or should they consider it irrelevant?
.
.
” when you realize how tiny we are and how huge are the countries that surround us (except Lebanon of course)”.
palestinians and palestine do not have to be compared with egypt or sirya. we have to concentrate on the little bantustan in which they live and then we can complain on how little israel is.
you ask me the solution. the solution is to respect the other, expecially if the other paid a huge price in order to make youry dream true. so the solution is to stop to finance new stealers-settlers with the money of the israeli tax payers and to give a change to the palestinians to have a normal state without settlements, bypass roads…ect…and before that you tell me the “jew free” west bank story, I paste and copy for you the words of n.jubeh:
.
““I think,” Jubeh said, “that slogans are not useful and do not explain the complexity of things. Any Jew who wants to live in our community, following the rules which this entails, must be free to do so. It’s quite a different story, however, to request that the settlers who arrived here by force and in defiance of international law can ipso facto be entitled to see their actions justified. In other words, those who want to live in a future Palestinian state must do so under the law and not as colonialists. When Israel was created, the Palestinians were already here, and accounted for the vast majority of the local population. This is why there are now over one million Palestinians in Israel, many of whom are known as ‘internally displaced persons’ [IDPs]. In constrast to this, settlers arrived in the Palestinian territories through violence and incentives received in recent years from Israeli governments. Equating the former to the latter is not only simplistic, but also morally reprehensible.”

I think your reasoning is flawed in one simple aspect. You forget the insane hatred of the Arabic and Islamic world towards Jews and Israel. The hatred goes beyond anything rational. You can compare it for example with the relations between Germany and other nations following WW2. The war has claimed the lives in millions and displaced countless more. Yet after just several years, relations were back to normal – there was no hatred on the level we can see in our region.

This hatred existed before the creation of Israel.

Your reasoning about justice ignores the simple fact that, given the ability, we all would have been slaughtered. Not displaced, not deported – slaughtered. It’s hard to find a solution or come to an agreement with people to whom you are the embodiment of evil – before the creation of the state or afterwards.

The tragedy of the Palestinians is not Israel – we could have built a paradise together – it’s their uncompromising attitude. Compare the amount of compromises Israel has made to the PLO’s inability to even change it’s charter, to the generations of people called “Refugees”, to the uncompromising way of armed resistance or to any other aspect…

now, as for the jews hatred in the arab world, you should read a bit about the topic. I suggest u this book of moshe maoz:http://books.google.it/books/about/Muslim_Attitudes_to_Jews_and_Israel.html?id=iNERGngsUOAC&redir_esc=y
give also a look to the personal story of ramban and ask yourselves why he chose to go to cairo, to the court of Salidin, when he was forced out of spain.
study also a bit the difference of shi’a and suni in relation to jews: it will help to downplay also this new argument that you are proposing
.
“the amount of compromises Israel had made” is just a stunt. these great compromises were just what the stronger was ready to discuss. one example: “I give you East Jerusalem, but Sheikh Jarrah, At.Tur, Silwan,…ect ect remain under my sovereignity”: give me a break. Of course also the palestinian leadreship has a lot of responability but to portray the israeli ones as a symbol of a compromise attitude is something that just if you are affected by a type of “chosen people” syndrom you can accept

@Rose

I’m sorry, I simply did not the have the time to write to a long reply, didn’t want to change the topic.

The personal story is just a personal story. The attitude towards Jews always ranged between bad and very bad.

I bet the Arabs in 1929 studied Zionist ideology and found it offensive before massacring Jews in Hebron and Safed. I’m sure the people in Jordan burn Israeli flags only after long debates about the political aspects of Zionism. I bet the Egyptians who bought copies of Mein Kampf during the sixties did it out scholarly interest. You simply cannot downplay this. When the official PLO TV broadcasts shows about Jews that would have made Hitler blush, when Egyptians who think they are on an Israeli TV station attack the TV crew, when countries which are so far from Israel broadcast shows which are pure blood libel and they top the charts – You CANNOT downplay this using books or personal preferences made hundreds of years ago.

I’m sorry, I’ll continue tomorrow.

Hebron prove exactly my point. There was never in the history any problem between arab-palestinains and jews. once that the Slabodka yeshiva started its policy of exclusion – that had the same logic of the “avodah ivrit” – the troubles invested the city. you just provide examples related to a post-zionist phase of the world. so you are not tackling the main issue that created the clashed registered in the middle east in the last century. you find very few cases of harassment toward jews in the suni world for centuries and centuries.

Pragmatic, real-life Zionism leaves no space for a Palestinian entity in the former British Palestine as shown on 1947 maps. Zionism always had a exclusive ownership and leadership claim for the whole territory, but has known to hide it in order to conquer it all step b step.

Another unfortunate example of bad journalism. Won’t stop on every point, but for instance Jewish israelis are also restricted from traveling to Gaza strip or Sector A or Arab states that declare themselves enemy of Israel for that matter.

Yet in this infographic it is presented in a way (“In addition” clause) that suggests this restriction is valid only for Arab Israelis, as a way of discrimination.

I’m not being political here, but this kind of nasty gaming with information really irks me.

And, well, you guys are kind of missing on that whole two-state solution thing. If you’re a citizen of a foreign country you don’t really expect to have the rights and the access the country’s citizens do. Works for Israelis in PA and Gaza strip, too, by the way.

Why do you allow the Zionist lobby to comment? If someone wants to read the hasbara manual there are plenty of links to it on the web. By publishing their garbage the international audience, the only audience that needs the facts, becomes confused that perhaps reality and the Palestinian narrative is incorrect.

Tell me… if the Palestinian narrative is so incorrect why is it that Jewish historian are rewriting history to better fit the Palestinian narrative because the Zionist narrative was nothing but utter garbage used to lie about the situation.

The Zionist narrative is nothing if not a modern fairy story with the same level of historic truths as the bible. They are a brain-dead cult with a single selfish goal of a Jewish cult state that will moan and groan about how tough they get it in life because they are hard done by rather than to deal with the issues at hand being their illegitimacy, terror tactics and international manipulations of political systems to get their own way. Well poor me, your fairy stories lack historic, biological and genetic foundations. The Zionist land grab at the expense of the existing population has and is nothing more than a crime against humanity.
